SUMMARY:Educator Workshop | Lifting Student Voices in the Classroom and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, educator Anton Miglietta brought his students from Instituto Justice and Leadership Academy in Pilsen to CHM on a field trip. What they experienced was a harmful lack of Latino/a/e representation in the Museum’s exhibitions. The students decided to demand accountability and change. \nIn this workshop\, Miglietta describes how his students’ protest led to our exhibition Aquí en Chicago and the profound impact it had on his teaching. Miglietta champions lifting student voice and choice in curriculum and will share practical resources and strategies to use in your own classroom. \nFree; advance reservations required. Recommended for teachers of grades 6–12. 3 PD hours.

There are many ways we all fight for a better world\, including using the arts to make statements and fight for change. \nMarch is Women’s History Month. This year at CHM\, we’re taking this time to think more critically about the history of women making change through the arts. Join us for a day of hands-on arts-making celebrating women in history and in our own lives. Then join us in the afternoon for a dual performance of two fabulous Chicago singers\, Amy Lowe and Shawn Christopher\, as they sing us all into action! \nIncluded with general admission. \nSchedule\n11:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. \nButton Making for Social Change \nCreate your own buttons to honor Women’s History Month and wear them proudly inside and outside the museum.

Wells\, Jane Addams\, Lucy Parsons\, and Pearl Hart all engaged in civic action both in public and behind the scenes. \nShow your support for the history of women’s activism by making your own protest sign. See some examples of feminist artivism (activism + art) in our exhibition Designing for Change: Chicago Protest Art of the 1960s–70s and then come design your own protest art to let others know what matters to you! \n12:00–1:00 p.m. \nHands-On Relief Printing Workshop with Vida Sačić \nDesign your own simple typographic compositions using foam and cardboard backing\, then experiment with hand-printing techniques to produce your own prints. Learn about foundational ideas in typography and relief printmaking in an accessible and tactile way to create and print your own message. \nThis workshop is led by artist Vida Sačić\, whose current work is featured in the US at 250: Civic Action in Chicago art installation in our main lobby. \nThis workshop is designed with youth and adults alike in mind. Participants of all ages are encouraged to join. \n1:00–3:00 p.m. \nMusic Making Change: Amy Lowe and Shawn Christopher \nCelebrate women making change through the arts with back-to-back performances by two amazing musical performers\, Amy Lowe and Shawn Christopher.

SUMMARY:Partner Event | Day of Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Full Spectrum Features’ latest short docudrama\, Enough\, will be featured at Chicago’s Day of Remembrance 2026\, an annual gathering that marks the signing of Executive Order 9066 and honors the many generations shaped by Japanese American incarceration. Rooted in the decades-long history of the Japanese American Redress Movement—from the lead-up to the 1981 Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians (CWRIC) hearings through the passage of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988—the film turns to community memory and testimony to ask what it takes to confront harm honestly and pursue repair over time. \nFollowing the screening\, a panel of community members and practitioners will reflect on how the legacies of Redress speak to present-day struggles around state violence\, surveillance\, and displacement: \n\nRebecca Ozaki – Yonsei\, granddaughter of a CWRIC testifier\nMary Samson – Sansei\, Redress organizer\nDr. Britt Dantley – family therapist and clinician\nBrian Tee – director and actor\nScott Sakiyama – attorney and anti-ICE advocate\n\nTogether\, they will consider how practices of storytelling\, accountability\, and care can interrupt repeating patterns of removal and state violence—both within families and across communities. \nThe program invites attendees to think with the panel about what “enough” looks like when it comes to justice: How do we honor the labor of those who fought for Redress while recognizing what remains unfinished? How can we speak with urgency about current harms without losing sight of the slow work of healing across generations? A guided discussion will offer space for reflection\, questions\, and shared commitments to ongoing community care. \nThis program is free and open to the public. Doors will open at 1:00 pm\, and a brief reception will follow the program from 3:30—4:00 pm. Due to limited seating\, advanced registration is highly encouraged. \nThis event is sponsored by Full Spectrum Features\, Chicago Japanese American Council\, Japanese American Citizens League – Chicago Chapter\, Chicago Japanese American Historical Society\, Japanese Mutual Aid Society of Chicago\, and Japanese American Service Committee. \nSchedule\n1:00 p.m. – Doors open\n2:00 p.m. – Program\n3:30 p.m. – Reception (water\, coffee\, tea)\n4:00 p.m. – Event concludes \nAbout the Film\nEnough intertwines the journeys of two determined young women\, separated by time but united by purpose: Ashley\, a biracial student frustrated by the societal controversies and erasure of racial justice efforts in the present day\, and Erika\, a Japanese American teenager in 1981 whose father\, Brian Takakura (played by Tee)\, a reserved and reluctant attorney\, is drawn into a landmark reparations hearing for World War II incarceration survivors. \nAs Ashley discovers Erika’s story in the archives of her school library\, she is pulled into a forgotten past—where the Japanese American community\, fractured by differing strategies and scars\, comes together in a last push for redress. With pressure mounting from younger activists\, traditional community leaders\, and his own daughter\, Brian must decide whether to speak from legal logic or personal truth. What follows is a powerful reckoning: revealing the lingering trauma of incarceration\, the generational cost of silence\, and the courage it takes to break it. \nContent Advisory: This film has dialogue that references alcoholism and domestic violence.

SUMMARY:Commemorative Day | Presidents’ Day
DESCRIPTION:In 2026\, the Chicago History Museum is celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence by asking questions about our nation’s democracy in progress. All of our commemorative days will center questions of civic engagement and democracy in action. \nThis Presidents’ Day\, we’re focusing on how you can become a more engaged community member. Through a variety of interactive activities\, learn new ways to create a stronger community and engage one another through conversation and action to promote positive social change. Be sure to check out our US at 250 installations in the lobby! \nIncluded with admission\, which is FREE for Illinois residents on this day. \nSchedule\n11:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. \nThe Art of Leadership\nCampaign buttons and signs have a long history of successfully—and sometimes unsuccessfully—promoting political campaigns. Make your own campaign buttons and signs and show your friends and family why you would make a great leader! \nWriting for Change: Letters to the President\nCalling and writing to your elected officials is an important way to make your voice heard. Whether you want to see change or to celebrate successes\, politicians need to hear from their constituents like you! Join other CHM visitors and write a letter to President Donald J. Trump. Afterward\, all letters will be mailed to the White House. \nCommunity Response Activity: “If I Were President . . .”\nIf you were president\, what would you do for the nation’s people? What policies would you implement to make life better for everyone? What sorts of actions help us all achieve “a more perfect union”? For this activity\, you’ll respond to these questions and more on a public whiteboard for others to read\, support\, and find inspiration. Share your ideas with others about how we can achieve “Life\, Liberty\, and the pursuit of Happiness” for all! \n1:00–2:00 p.m. \nInteractive Workshop: “What Matters Most to You? Unlocking Your Civic Journey”\nLed by the Institute for Policy and Civic Engagement (IPCE) at the University of Illinois Chicago\, this workshop is a unique opportunity to learn more about civic engagement\, find your civic voice\, and understand the impact individuals have in shaping their futures and our communities. Through small group conversations and a civic engagement activity\, learn why civic learning and democratic education are important and how they can lead to civic action.

SUMMARY:The Guild Presents | This Too Shall Burn: America in the Age of Wood
DESCRIPTION:The United States has been\, historically\, a land of trees. This made its built environment thoroughly wooden and\, consequently\, alarmingly combustible. In the same way that fossil fuels are today the source of our abundance but also the cause of increasingly destructive climate disasters\, wood was the source of US abundance and the cause of constant\, harrowing fires. \nThe Guild of the Chicago History Museum invites you to brunch and a lecture by Daniel Immerwahr\, author and Bergen Evans Professor in the Humanities at Northwestern University\, on how those hair-raising fires have shaped—or scarred—the American past. \nFire Sponsor – 2 tickets\, $250. \nIndividual Ticket – 1 ticket\, $90. \nQuestions? Contact Eva Rachau\, director of development\, at rachau@chicagohistory.org or (312) 799-2116.
